first order of business, i would like to thank everyone (and a special hug and noodles to faith at ferrets R#1) that sent their support and words of wise through my loss of pookie. it's coming up on a year that he's been gone and the 8 fur kids and myself still miss my boy, of course. *sniffles* but in heart and merrily tattooed on my back, he will be remembered *anyone interested in seeing pictures of my tattoo, email me at [log in to unmask] fat ferret: ok, 7 of my fur babes are slinky. the last MF ball of fur that was bestowed upon me as a dying bebe is now a tubby tubby tubby ferret. he (iggy) is a year old now. his tummy jiggles....a lot. but he does have a wider face and thick neck and resembles a picture of what i saw being called a "bulldog/german blood" ferret. i dunno. is there anyway to tell if he is overweight or not normal? *shrugs* just wondering. he acts normal and bounces (might be the perpetual motion of flub helping him bounce, not shure) but i don't want later problems if "fat" is his case. ok, la de da, i am finally wisking away to germany from may 28th to june 14th. i'll be in Leipzig and Berlin for a music festival. i've never been to germany, but i do speak the language. any ferret people out there that want to hang out for a day or gimmie some tips about the country and nifty places to go? wheeee. ah vacation. thanks, andrea and the 8 balls of fur (one especially jiggley ball of fur) [Posted in FML issue 3332]
